  Case: Working with ESE student that is uncooperative
An ESE student that has already gone into course recovery in the new semester does not have the best track record of completing work. This student is aware they need to be working on class work and other class related homework and projects. They will spend some class periods procrastinating on beginning work. When they do receive one-on-one assistance they try to divert their focus to looking in their book bag for a paper or they will fiddle with their iPad. If they need the use of the iPad they will stretch time by saying the link doesn't work, or they can't find the location of something. Instruction are given clearly and on multi occasions. How can this this student be helped to stay on task and work productively.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would say that a rewards and consequences system would be most effective. I would pull the student independently and discuss with them what their expected behavior is and how they are not following classroom procedures. I would then put a rewards system in place for if the student completes all of their homework for the week, and a consequence for if they do not meet the expectations. For example, if the students have a free Friday fun day, the student would not be able to participate and would have to complete unfinished work instead, but if they do complete the work they can pick a treasure box reward. If the negative behavior continues after this point, I would get in contact with the family and let them know how their student is not meeting school expectations.

Comments: I don't think a consequence is necessary but rather reinforcements of work and possibly a buddy to help them out during class to locate or find work.
